Reviews

'Nationalism is once again at the top of the scholarly agenda. Umut Ozkirimli both provides a and insightful guide to recent debates and helps move the field forward, beyond worn-out dichotomies.' - Craig J. Calhoun, New York University, USA 'This is the most sophisticated attempt yet to combine social science understanding of nationalism with normative concerns about its expression. Up-to-date and possessed of tremendous range, the book is sure to be a success.' - John A. Hall, McGill University '[A] welcome breath of fresh air... an excellent survey of the recent debates which should satisfy a beginner student of the subject as well as any academic interested in moving the field further.' - Veronika Bajt, Nations and Nationalism "This is an ambitious work that reviews a wide range of literature with a view to proposing an alternative approach... Umut Ozkirimli is undoubtedly a rising star in the study of nationalism." - Atsuko Ichijo, Patterns of Prejudice
